Remillard Group

Thoughtful buyers of bookkeeping and back-office firms.

We focus on long-term ownership, respect for founder legacy, and smooth, confidential transitions that preserve your team and client relationships.

About Remillard Group

Remillard Group is an independent operator focused on acquiring one exceptional bookkeeping or accounting firm—not building a portfolio. Based in Southern California, we're open to acquiring U.S.-based firms that align with our values and vision.

Our approach is built on a long-term mindset. We're not looking to flip businesses or impose rigid corporate structures. Instead, we bring hands-on operational experience in software, systems, and process improvement—skills that help us enhance what you've built without disrupting the culture and relationships that make your firm successful.

When you sell to Remillard Group, you're partnering with someone who understands that your team and clients are your greatest assets. We're committed to preserving both, ensuring a transition that honors your legacy while positioning the business for sustainable growth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from firm owners exploring a sale.

Will my team be kept on?

Yes. We view your team as a core asset and are committed to retaining and supporting them. Our goal is continuity, not disruption.

Do I need a broker?

Not necessarily. We work directly with owners and are happy to work with brokers if you're already engaged with one. Either way, we'll ensure a professional, respectful process.

How long does the process take?

Typically 60–90 days from letter of intent to closing, depending on complexity and due diligence requirements. We move efficiently while being thorough.

Is our conversation confidential?

Absolutely. We'll sign a non-disclosure agreement before any detailed discussions, and we'll work with you to ensure your team and clients remain unaware until you're ready to share.

Can I stay on after the sale?

Yes, we're open to flexible transition arrangements. If you'd like to stay on for a period to ensure a smooth handoff, we can discuss options that work for both of us.

What makes you different from other buyers?

We're an independent operator focused on one acquisition, not a portfolio. You'll work directly with the owner-operator, not a committee. We prioritize preserving your legacy, team, and client relationships over rapid growth or cost-cutting.
